- You need LHA (that's LHArc v2.xx) - available on most good MSDOS sites
- (like ftp.ulowell.edu in /msdos/Archivers I think).

- Do you want a player or a MOD editor? If you are talking of players,
- look for ModPlay Pro, WOW II, WOW, Visual Player, Rainbow Player,
- Winmod and Winmod Pro. I think WOW II and Winmod Pro support the
- stereo features of the SB Pro. I know of one editor, its name is
- ModEdit 3.0.

- Yes, it is. The Amiga features special chips for sound and graphics (I
- think the sound chip's name is Paula). As far as I know, the sound
- quality of the SB Pro and the Amiga are about equal, maybe the Amiga
- is even better. I think the only soundcard for PCs superior the Amiga
- is the Roland. Don't get me wrong, I'm not an Amiga enthusiast. In
- fact, one of my first computers was an Atari. But I am also working on
- PCs, Suns and Indigos (and listening to MODs on all of these machines).
